I have never been an athletic person, nor a particularly healthy person. When becoming healthier became a goal of Daniel's I realized that I very much wanted to join him on that journey. I have some specific obstacles to overcome to realize those goals, but I am loving the results so far, and am excited to see how far I can get with dedication and perseverance. This blog will help me record the Journey so that I can look back to see how far I've come.

Guess who the slowest runner was ... yeah Me. Made me work harder during my runs, but i was sucking air by the end, and it was an ego bruiser to have everyone stuck @ my slow pace.
Form on Kettlebell swings was terrible, but i did them all. ... Eventually.
When I turned 30, I took stock of myself and was not very impressed with what I had become physically. I resolved to lose weight and get fit, and spent the next year and a half doing just that. In that journey I've discovered Crossfit and Rockclimbing, and am now passionate about them both. This is a log of my progress.
